Light

#Poem Light by D. H. Thoreau

This poem sings songs of heart and love. The message of the poem is that without love the world is no longer place to live.

The poet uses day and night as metaphors. He says that night has thousands eyes means in night there are thousands of stars but it does not give light. But day has only one eye but it gives light. When sun sets the world of light ends.

Same way mind has thousand eyes while heart has one where love lives. Like sun if love is gone then the whole life dies.

So it is very short and simple poem.
